Former Rep. Anthony Weiner has slashed away at front-runner Christine Quinns lead in New York Citys Democratic mayoral primary, according to a poll released Tuesday, cutting her advantage in half in a little over a month.

Weiner, who formally entered the race last week, now draws 19 percent of the vote in the crowded primary field, according to the Marist University poll. Quinn, the city council speaker who is trying to become the citys first openly gay mayor, draws 24 percent of the vote. Quinns lead is within the polls margin of error. In April, she held an 11-point lead over Weiner, 26 percent to 15 percent.

NYC is almost as bad (well, they did have Rudy Guliani) as Pittsburgh. If Satan would run as a Democrat and even go as low as eat babies on TV and tie tin cans to cat's tails, Satan would still win because he is a Democrat. If Jesus Himself came to run as a Republican, Satan would still won. B-(
